The morning started with some clouds and light rain waking up the city of
Akureyri. The wind was coming from the north bringing some waves with it
so the sail out of the fjord was a nice adventure. Humpback whales were in
between Hjalteyri and Grenivik during the day; however we could see
more individuals close to Hrísey as well. Some individuals were solitary
while other gather in pairs and even three in a group travelling out of the
fjord. The highlight of the day happened during the last tour when one
humpback breached several times. It also did tail slapping against the
water few times before to keep going out of the fjord. At the same time it
was raining heavier and we all got completely wet, but all agree it was
worth it! Great last day of August!
